Data Dictionary Catalogs
Data dictionary catalogs contain the names of the catalogs installed for Actian X tools (such as ABF, QBF, and VIFRED). When you invoke one of these products, the product uses the data dictionary catalogs to determine if the required catalogs are present; if the catalogs are not present, the product cannot run.
The ii_client_dep_mod catalog lists the products that have been installed, and the modules required by the product. The format of ii_client_dep_mod is as follows:
Column Name
Data Type
Description
client_name

module_name
